Wally Wood: Galaxy Art and Beyond

Wally Woodâ€™s career in comics is legendary among the annals of comicâ€™s history. He rocketed to fame working on Will Eisnerâ€™s The Spirit newspaper strip and became one of the most talented artists working for EC Comics during the 1950s. Wood also became a star of ECâ€™s satire comic, Mad, which went on to even greater success as a magazine, allowing the artist to apply his amazing talents in a broader spectrum. When the comicâ€™s industry fell on lean times during the mid 1950s, Wood segued into the field of science fiction pulp illustration, providing over 200 beautiful drawings and several color cover paintings for the digest magazines, particularly Galaxy. Wood left behind a legacy of great art, much of which has never been reprinted. This book will feature them all. Long time Wally Wood historian Roger Hill has spent the past twenty years pulling together the history of Woodâ€™s involvement with the pulp digests and tracking down original art for this project. Over half of the images have been pulled from the originals or from Woodâ€™s personal file copies, allowing Wood fans the finest possible reproduction!
